Abstract
A wire electrical discharge machine includes: a gap voltage detector for detecting a voltage across an electrode gap; a first voltage control unit for applying a first voltage to the electrode gap; a discharge determiner for determining whether or not the electrode gap is in a discharging state during application of the first voltage; and a second voltage control unit for supplying a machining current through the electrode gap when the electrode gap is in a discharging state. After a supply of the machining current to the electrode gap, even when a discharge is induced by the next application of the first voltage to the electrode gap, the second voltage control unit prohibits application of a second voltage to the electrode gap.
